Someone already mentioned this, but "time out" cards for troops in the infantry
Battle Schools? I hope someone explains this time out system to any enemy these
"soldiers" might encounter someday.

OK... I‘m really really tired of this myth. That‘s right,
it‘s an urban or army myth. There never has been timeout
cards, it started as a joke many years ago about the eventual
state of the army. I‘ve talked to guys who just came from
both the Reg Force recruit school and the Reg Force Officer
Candidate school, and finally from WATC Wainwright, and no
one has seen these cards. They don‘t exist and will never
exist I hope.

I would suggest that your guide limit itself to hints that help the new
member in matters that concern themselves with things such as health.
ie "purchase a cheap pair of flip flops for the shower to avoid atheletes
foot"
or "start running and work up to a distance of 3.2 km with ever increasing
speed"
You have to be careful in trying to prepare new pers for a course with too
many specifics. I say this because:
1. course content is in a state of change and the advice you give may not be
relevant.
2. The ability of candidates to deal with new information/change and their
attitude toward these challenges is an important assessment tool for the
instructors.
3. If you make things too easy, pers who are not suited for military
service, may not be identified. and you may find yourself sorting out their
kit in the field when they re join the unit after their course
Having said the above, I think your concern for the welfare of the new
troops, is admirable.

Hi Sean
I would really appreciate seeing your QL2 Guide when it‘s finished.
It sounds very helpful and will no doubt help build confidence in new course
candidates.
Thank you for your efforts in composing this guide!
Cheers!

That sounds good, its just that I obviously can‘t miss too much school.
I might be able to make it.
We‘ll see!
Thanks, Sean.

Combined QL2/3 infantry is supposed to be 8 weeks total. Can someone verify if
the artillery and engineers have a combined 8 week program yet? Check with
your unit to determine if you can be nominated for a QL2 feeder starting at the
beginning of July.
